That's like saying you are more discerning than Wilt Chamberlain when it comes to women.
I'm not knocking Leno's vehicles. Its his money, he can buy whatever strikes his fancy. From what I have seen some of Leno's purchasing decisions are made based on how unique, interesting, or historic a vehicle is. I love some of the vehicles he has. Some I don't like at all. Either way, his buying criteria are much different than mine and his purchasing decisions in no way affect my opinion of a vehicle.
My opinion of this vehicle remains that it will be an expensive, impractical, piece of shit. This is based on the simple fact that if on average you only use 1/3 of those 48hp on the base version you aren't even going to get 1 hour out of the 10 Kwh battery. That is with perfect efficiency in the electronic system and drivetrain, something that is impossible to do. Testing may change my mind, but based on what they are claiming I remain confident it will suck.
